“I picked up things from Cheteshwar Pujara mainly from the way he focuses” – Rizwan

Rizwan had earlier said that arch-rivals, India and Pakistan, love playing against each other. He also said that his county stint helped a lot as he learned from the experienced Pujara himself.

“Everyone wants to see Pakistan and India play bilateral series or other matches but the state-level affairs are not in the hands of the players,” Rizwan told reporters in Lahore.

“I get the impression that players of both sides want to play regularly against each other but we can’t do anything.”

“You learn from being with such senior players and I picked up things from Pujara mainly from the way he focuses and concentrates while batting,” he further added.
